There is no way a 737 is going in with those figures!
Unless it's a B737 - 200 - those target type thrust reversers work well!

Recall operating the type to Mykinos in the 1980s when the runway was about 4,500 foot long there. There was no high pressure (bowser) fuel available there then so we had to land with enough fuel to get back to Athens for a tech (fuel) stop on the way back to UK so the landing weight at Mykinos was on max - good game!
